Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

I need to go fill up Marie with AF A-1 today. (Before they raise their prices again)
Might as well fill the diesel truck too.
And a gas can for the lawnmower.
Seems I’m going to be a lubricating, tank filling fool today!

This is why I don't like high roosts. I hope she is OK. I've seen reports of broken keel bones from falling off roosts

Not much of a choice for me I’m afraid.

This has me wondering, how big are your best boxes?

I have these, I got them at Tractor Supply.

Little Giants - 16.5 in. long by 15.88 in. wide by 19.75 in. high. The opening is 7x7. I just came back inside from sitting out in the coop after putting peanuts in them. They still wouldn't go in them and they adore peanuts. I even moved one to where they were laying and put down even lower then this one is. All they did was move to the even harder to get to spot in the other corner.

I was watching Oreo he seems to indicating to them to lay at least by the nest boxes picking up straw and chips for them in that area but they are not listening.

They just do not feel comfortable going in those boxes I will have to find different ones I imagine deep sigh
